Carl Safina: What are animals thinking?

Speaking to an audience at Google, Ocean conservationist and MacArthur Foundation Fellow, Carl Safina, discusses animal thought in his new book, Beyond Words: What Animals Think and Feel. Safina shares the similarities between our minds and theirs, including the capacity for self-awareness, empathy, and grief. He presented his case for thinking about animals differently to an audience at Google. His findings are surprising and offer even more reasons why conservation should be important to everyone.
